Oh, this means WAR war
If you’re ever on the opposite side of Dolly on an ethical or moral issue, you’re on the wrong side.
From the comments:
I’m actually mostly surprised by the nerdcore hip-hop call out. I just assumed the genre melded with mainstream.
Ahhh unity
Fucking eh!
If you spend 10 minutes looking into Dolly Parton, you’ll find a Fucking Angel.
Legitimately. Look into her reading program. Not just the news articles, but the written deals. She makes sure that if her program is a success, that the county is contracted to keep it going FOR-FUCKING-EVER. Her legacy is generations of kids who graduate high school because she sent them books.
And that’s just ONE thing she did, with a legacy that will outlast every one of us.
We ride at dawn.
That’s exactly why they hate her. She gives kids free books, no strings attached.
I can think of other reasons
There’s a better life
And you think about it, don’t you?
It’s a rich man’s game
No matter what they call it
And you spend your life
Putting money in his wallet-9 to 5
She’s not only an angel, she’s a straight up bad removed in every possible sense.
I guess lemmy.ml filters the word ass ! lol
Nope, bitch.
Imagine the censorship laws under tankies.
Say poop, I dare you. Straight to jail.
Did you censor the word “bitch” or is this some sort of fucking idiot censorship on lemmy.world? Fucking swear I’ll leave this instance at a drop of a hat if it is dumbass censorship.
Words don’t need to be blanket censored on the internet. Go ham with moderation but censoring words is how we end up with weird phrases like “unalive” instead of what they actually are murder, suicide, and death. Which makes it fucking hard to talk about fucking real god damn mother fucking problems people are dealing with you corporate bitch ass shills.
I don’t censor. It was the instance.
Jfc lemmy.world is trying to speed run to zero users
.world runs no filters. The user’s home instance of .ml did the filtering.
That’s a bit fucking dumb to reciprocate censorship, but also it would be hard to stop that functionalityas well. But yeah I logged out and checked and my comment is 100% intact. Should defederate from .ml and put them on an island. Editing my comment to make it clear what idiot instance is the issue.
It wasn’t world, Lemmy.ml is his home instance which does the censoring
I just tested commenting ass somewhere else and it was not censored.
EDIT: No censorship here either, this time.🤷
misogynist slurs shouldnt be tolerated.
How do you feel about misandrist slurs?
misandry doesn’t real.
Lmao yeah that sounds about right, rules for thee not for me.
This is how they got Early Cuyler
Looked up the article. They’re mad that Dolly Parton, who is a very outspoken Christian, is specifically the kind who embraces the “God loves everyone and that means we should love everyone, too” ethos of Christianity. In other words, the author of the article is pissed that Dolly doesn’t gaybash. What a fucking piece of shit you have to be to sit down and be like “you know what’s wrong with this person? They aren’t cruel enough.”
Christians would hate Jesus
Us queers love dolly parton. Whoever wrote that had no fucking clue what they’d unleash.
I think Dolly is who drag queens aim for, but they can’t get their hair floofy enough.
My hidden hair is floofy, just need some dye
You haven’t met enough drag queens. There is no limit to how much floof the can get out of a cheap wig.
See that’s the whole problem, gotta shell out for better wigs.
“It costs a lot of money to look this cheap!”
I heard her tell a story about how she entered a Dolly Parton drag competition on a whim. She was delighted that she lost!
Its never about “loving everyone” its about “accepting everyone”. Those are different things.
Not sure what your point is, but I have a hard time imagining love and acceptance not going hand in hand.
For example; you should always love your kid, but you should not necessarily accept what they chose to do or what they become.
Oh hi mum, didn’t know you were on lemmy
For example; you should always love your kid, but you should not necessarily accept what they chose to do or what they become.
good point, if i had a kid and they turned out to be a trump supporter, i would never accept that. but i also wouldn’t disown them like trump supporter parents do to their kids for being gay
Somebody actually woke up one morning & thought, “Man, I know everyone’s convinced Dolly’s such a great person… how can I quickly cement that idea even further publicly & make myself look like an even bigger douche at the exact same time?!”
I’m sorry for all the dolly fans out there, but I have a confession… I don’t care for her music.
But I will defend this woman simply because her charity work alone makes her deserving of much more.
And I know I don’t even know half of what she does.
So if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go sharpen up my torches and light my pitchforks, because ain’t nobody dissing dolly Parton around me.
I’m sorry for all the dolly fans out there, but I have a confession… I don’t care for her music.
I don’t care for most of it that much either but as you I can’t help respect her.
She was inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame but declined it because she didn’t play rock and roll, then they persuaded her to accept it anyway and she got inducted. What does she do? She of course makes a rock and roll album with duets among that a good duet with Rob Halford on Bygones.
Yeah I have nothing but respect for her.
You may just be listening to it too fast.

She is an incredibly prolific songwriter for other people as well. There’s a decent chance you like a song she wrote that is performed by someone else - if that makes you feel any better about your sacrilege (smiley face emoji)
Yep. It has nothing to do with her music and everything to do with her being an amazing person who wants to help children with her millions.
Most people don’t like Dolly for her music. It would be hard to get so many people to agree on one artist based on their music.
But anybody saying she’s a bad person is just flat wrong or just trying to stir shit.
As a non-Dolly music fan, I agree with you wholeheartedly… for now.
But later, if it comes out after she’s dead, that she was secretly harvesting puppy blood in her basement or abusing handicapped kids for decades or some other crazy awful thing, I’ll have to re-evaluate. And though I’m not hoping for this to be the case, it just seems like that’s exactly the type of shit this timeline would do to us. Guys I think I’m losing hope for humanity. Dolly save us all.
A little bit of hope for you: people have been trying to tear Dolly down for years; if anything like what you fear existed it probably would have been dug up by now.
She’s 78 years old and she’s been in the public eye for almost 60 years, and she’s been pretty upfront about her views and the good that she wants to do the entire time, and putting her money where her mouth is, and somehow some awful people still try to smear her and still can’t find anything to smear her with.
Aw hell naw! First Mr Rogers now Dolly? These monsters truly have no morals.
They’re lucky Dolly would want me to be kind to them.
Yes, her destructive beliefs, like, Checks notes… turning the other cheek.
Where does she get these terrible ideas? Probably some book they never read. Book reading is fur libtards.

That’s a serious understatement. I’m an atheist, but she’s the closest thing to a saint I can think of.
And that only goes up to 2022.
Her and Mr. Rogers are probably more saintly than any actual historical saint
I live in Tennessee. The number of lives that Dolly Parton has changed for the better is immeasurable. The two things you’re supposed to do as a Christian are to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself.
She loves her neighbors more than she loves herself. Anyone talking trash about Dolly is the worst kind of person.
My wife and I recently had a child. We came home the other day to a book in the mail; “The Little Engine That Could”. It was sent by a foundation that Dolly either started or contributes heavily to. She chose that book as the introductory book because it reminds her of the struggles her father endured and overcame learning to read. Fuck whoever dispareges Dolly Parton in the neck with a rusty screwdriver.
Dolly Parton is the kind of saint the Catholic Church will never canonize.
THATS. NOT. OKAY.
I hope these people have IBS for a couple of weeks. And during times on the can, use that quiet time to reflect. Praise Dolly. Amen.
Ah, the Federalist. Too much of a pussy to have been a school shooter. Impotently flinging poo at the rest of us.
Clan member mentality, but lacks the balls to wear a frock, undertips ethnic waitresses instead.
Metal head here who idolizes Dolly. She’s a national treasure the likes of Mister Rogers. Who has also been attacked by the right.
For those interested she’s in a couple of VERY trans positive episodes of The Orville (one just her song 9-5 and the other in a long scene as herself).
Anyone bashing Dolly hates freedom is no good. A full on poophead.
She’s all around awesome. Always helped people, always gives back. Always been kind. And a certified rock star! I have no tattoos, never seen the allure. But if I woke up with Dolly’s face tattooed I wouldn’t even be angry.
She’s also in the movie 9 to 5, which was what the song was written for, which is about three women who have had enough of their misogynist boss and get revenge on him. On top of that, she starred in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, which is one of the few films which doesn’t denigrate sex workers and actually shows them as normal people.
One of the many things I love about The Orville is that the song 9-5 became a revolutionary feminist anthem to the Moclans. And that she was sweet enough to make a cameo.
I saw 9 to 5 when it came out as I am old. I still love it.
All 3 female leads were awesome, and she absolutely held her own against the legendary Tomlin and Fonda. Also recently passed Dabney Coleman.
I was only 3 when it came out, but it was definitely a regular staple of the cable movie channels when I got older. My dad was a film historian, so we had all the movie channels so he could tape movies to show them in class. 9 to 5 would show up on occasion.
As you suggested, what an amazing cast!
Edit: Just read this on the IMDB-
This was Dolly Parton’s theatrical film debut. In preparation for her role as Doralee Rhodes, she not only committed to memory her own part, but the parts of every other role in the film. Apparently, the two experienced starring actresses, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda, burst out laughing when Parton let on that she believed that pictures were filmed in the chronological order of a film’s script.
That’s adorable and also impressive.
